Gertrude Stein Unisex White Three Lives Paperback Book In

Gertrude Stein

Three Lives was Gertrude Steins first published book. It contains three stories of three working class women Anna, a conscientious but rigid serving woman Melanctha, a worldlywise and sensitive black girl and Lena, a gentle but feebleminded maid. Although these are relatively ordinary women, in Steins hands their lives and minds take on extraordinary interest. Told in clear, carefully crafted prose, these stories are not only memorable works in themselves but an excellent entree to Steins later work. | Gertrude Stein Three Lives Paperback Book in White
